We believe that birth is a natural process and a gift given to a woman by her creator. With tender, nurturing support, you can be empowered to take an active role in the birth of your child. We can help you achieve the best birth for you and your family, while making sure that it is a positive experience you will always remember.
We offer doula services to all Indianapolis-area pregnant women & their support partners, including Carmel, Geist and Fishers. Let us quickly calm your fears of replacing your partner by explaining that we will enhance your birth partner's capabilities, as well as help your partner be less anxious during labor. If you do not have a birth partner, we will be happy to be an integral part of your support system. We will ALL work as a team to help you achieve your optimum birth experience.
What is a birth doula?
A doula "mothers" the laboring mother. She bonds with the mother and her support person before birth so that they can work together as a team. A doula creates calmness and the essence of relaxation. She comforts the laboring woman both emotionally and physically and gives suggestions on helpful labor positions. She listens, offers encouragement and she fully supports the laboring woman so that she feels protected, advocated, informed and empowered.
